The Monadnock Center for History and Culture is excited to present Los Sugar Kings, on Friday, November 13. From the Boston area, the quartet is known for their dynamic live performances, rich harmonies, intense musicianship and ability to transcend genres with an authenticity rarely heard. In their world, respect is paid to the forefathers and traditions of Afro-Cuban Son, Salsa and Rumba-Flamenca but Los Sugar Kings (named after a Cuban baseball team) also actively draw on influences from nearly every continent in their unique roots-rock-reggae fusion repertoire. All are highly accomplished on their instruments, however the true magic of Los Sugar Kings is how these four individuals come together to put on a performance worthy of any festival, party, club or concert hall. Their show is an intimate dialogue between the band and their audience, with both sides communicating in a manner that is spontaneous, passionate, thoughtful and joyous. The band features Patino Vazquez on guitar & tres Cubano; Mikael Mersha, bass; Daniel Abreu saxophone & keyboards; and Benny Benson, percussion, with all four band members on vocals.
The concert, part of the Music in Bass Hall Concert series, starts at 7:30 p.m. Admission is $15 / $12 for Monadnock Center members, seniors, and students. Reservations may be made online at MonadnockCenter.org, or by calling 603-924-3235.
